'28 Years Later: The Bone Temple' Continues Franchise with Mixed Reviews on Characters and Tone

‘28 Years Later: The Bone Temple,’ directed by Nia DaCosta and written by Alex Garland, is the fourth film in the 28 Days Later franchise, continuing the story after the previous installment. The film features Jack O’Connell as the menacing Jimmy Crystal leading a gang of violent predators in a post-apocalyptic Britain. While praised for its dark humor, intense scenes, and DaCosta’s direction, some critics find the film’s characters underdeveloped despite strong performances, especially from O’Connell. The movie blends horror and satire, leaving room for future sequels.
